My wife and I both use Bitwarden and share passwords back and forth. We switched from LastPass after the chrome extensions shit the bed, and thankfully before they got hacked.
Tonight I got her to just make a Pass Plus account under the one year free deal. She voiced her opposition to switching “again”. I told her it’s not better than Bitwarden yet anyway, but I’ll keep an eye on it and let her know when it’s better. I’m going to need to make a convincing case to get her to switch… again.
These reasons here are why I’m switching to KeePass soon. You can set up Syncthing to keep all the databases in sync and store it locally on each device. That way, it’s all self hosted still but less chance of critical failure and no chance of your database getting into the wrong hands from a massive leak by a company.
Bitwarden stores the vault locally on each device. If the server goes down the devices still all work. They just can’t sync together which is exactly the same as synching+keepass
The vault is also stored on the Bitwarden servers, which is why I mentioned a data breach.
Granted, the level of encryption on those vaults is excellent and the chances of decryption is low.
That’s only if you use their service. If you self host, they get no data from you. My Bitwarden server doesn’t even have access to the internet.
Oh true
